Quite possibly overreacting to the working conditions I find myself in at the studio this morning…but it is cold (inside and out) with a sneeze of overnight snow. #warmupsketch

A Right Royal Bug. Here’s to all those who have been impacted over the Christmas period with bugs of one sort or another…wishing you well and a speedy recovery as we edge towards for the New Year. #christmasbugs

Lord & Lady Coif. Ghost from…that-bit-between-Christmas-and-New-Year.

Draw what you know. A perennial post from a true professional. #boxingday

Rudolf cheeseboard.

Dance of the Snow Tigers. Wishing you all good things this Christmas. Peace & happiness xx

Tea time, the most civilised part of the day. #teatimedoodle

Winter solstice. Inspired by googling winter solstice costumes. (The wheels came off pretty quickly). #wintersolstice

Winter Wolf. #procreate

Twinkle toes. #sketchbook

Arctic wolf. Another winter oldie when I was first navigating my way around Procreate, playing with textures etc.

Snow Tiger. Getting in the festive mood with this oldie. Charcoal, coloured in procreate.

Thistlegrin & Gozzle. Early development sketches of this troubling duo from my wolf picture book project this year. Drawing the ‘bad ones’ is always the most fun. More sneaky peaks soon. #characterdesign

Coffee break. #pencil

A healthy mind leads to a healthy body. You heard it here first. #morningmotivation

Man contemplating the bigger questions alongside a variety of options to best ensure a weekend of wild abandon. #weekendthoughts

Another one of these hairy gentlemen-come-bear types. #pencil

Every picture tells a story. From the originally titled JUST LIKE MY DAD (2002) but later rebranded with additional colour to the insides and published as JUST LIKE MY DADDY (2017).

There’s something about a fox… 🧡🤎 #pencil

Morning meh. We all have them, and so it seems with my usually chirpy neighbour. Image size: W10cm x H11cm Pencil (with a bit digital shenanigans). #sparrow #birdlife

Chilly studio. Extra log on the fire this morning. #brrr

Keeping it real. Nnnice. A Scallywags oldie. Miss these guys. #thescallywags

Another morning-coffee sketch 🤎

Spooky brushpen doodles I didn’t get around to posting at Halloween. #brushpen #brushpendrawing

‘Eeeeeaaarrrgghh!’ squealed the king, ‘he’s freezing!’ . Jack Frost meeting King Gobbledegook for the first time in The Tale of Jack Frost. An original painting, I adjusted the colours to a more atmospheric blue in photoshop. Swipe to see the original, brown version in the book. Right decision?

Encore. Think this guy has more to offer…sketchbook wise. #characterdesign

Caffeine reverie. #sketchbook

Scratching for ideas. (Old, new, borrowed, blue). #studiolife

These three dragons appeared while sketchbook-casting for extras in my current #wip Wolf story. They didn’t get far but I’ve told them to stick around…story ideas are always simmering. #characterdesign

THE FALLEN by Laurence Binyon ❤️🖤 They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. (Extract) Drawing inspired by Italian sculptor Marino Marini. #armisticeday

Forest gossip. A visual for a thing way back. I’ve forgotten what exactly, but the trees haven’t. They know EVERYTHING. #charcoal

Birthday weekend. (Old dog) #toot

Ablutions.

Bit more wolf. #sketchbook

Goldfinch Pencil H11cm x W9cm Been watching some of these regular visitors to the garden a lot recently. Maybe too bling for some, I think these birds are great. Full of personality. Bit cantankerous at times, they always have an opinion about something.

Sketchbook face. #pencil
